I'm the opposite of most people in this thread I guess. The plot and premise sound boring to me, but I'm recording it BECAUSE of Ronald Moore. Although I think BSG declined in quality over time, I still believe it to be one of the best science fiction shows I've seen, despite having no relationship to science and being a bit random/retconny. I liked the latter seasons a lot more on a second viewing/binging.

Good one.
Worst offense was not having any thoughts or precursors on who the oft mentioned Final Five were to be and just pulling it out of his ass at the last minute. Viewers who foolishly assumed the creator knew what he was doing and were looking for hints or indications in episodes were frustrated.

Back to Helix. It's an interesting premise. Have to wait and see what develops.
